ASUC - Senate

The 20-member ASUC Senate is the legislative branch of the student government. They control the ASUC's $12 million budget, update the governing documents, and represent the voice of UC Berkeley students. Senators work on a wide variety of issues such as campus safety, healthcare, affordability of education, and improving academic services. ASUC Funding to student programs is allocated by the ASUC Senate. See www.asuc.org Funding page for a complete description of the different ways students can apply for support from the ASUC. The ASUC Finance Committee reviews spending decisions of the ASUC Senate and Student Groups according the ASUC By-Laws Title III. Groups seeking permission to use funds for a normally restricted use (see By-Laws) should initiate the appropriate waiver request available through the form links further down this page.
